Shahrizat better be a strong and firm leader. No need to be too nice and play your PR game to the hilt. Call a keris a keris if you have too.Her job is not just to convince the makcik type wanita but also the young and restless.Good Luck and God Bless!

Rafidah was probably the best option for our country. She made tonnes of contribution to the country. Unfortunately, umno chose Sharizat who lost her own constituency. Umno is definitely going down. Probably, down the country too. I can see how melayu these days are pretty much sesat like one of the comments here.

Talking about a so-called AP episode.. it's just that those holders are Malay, it IS then an issue... Something to ponder here.. whatever it is, kudos to Rafidah for all the good job during her tenureship as MITI Minister...

rocky, rafidah might looked like "the bad guy" but she is a good worker and she has done a lot for our country. I really hoped she would win again, becoz of her ability to handle her ministry and portfolio well...but she lost. This is politics in the Wanita wing anyway. Time to move on perhaps.

What can you expect for Malaysian women from Umno wanita when all you have to choose from are two greedy geese.

Both Rafidah and Shahrizat should be nominated for the best RTM "lakunan" awards for the role of representing women in our country.

Like their male corrupt counterparts, they have played the starring role to remain silent when women are abused, even in parliament.

They know to play the role of listening, and yet like blood lusty barracudas their goal is to feed on ill-gotten spoils and to be fattened by the benefits.

Over the past decade women have brought up various legitimate issues of abuse, harassment, discrimination and marginalization. Yet all these over-fed matrons did were to make women look like the aggressor and sinner.

Instead of acting they have accused women to be perpetrators who lead and cause men to rape and abuse them. These leaders are like wolves elected to "protect" lambs. They are lazy gluttons of swing, utterly shameless and profane in their pretense.

Who will hear the cries of the oppressed Muslim women who are given the run around in custody issues and other crucial issues on development? Who is going to ensure the rights of non-Muslim women and when they face issues such as forced conversions and abduction?

Who will heed the call to redress the injustices against women in the marketplace when polices supposedly to benefit them are a noose around their necks? Certainly not Sharizat.

It will take more than a giant poster and party kompang parade to convince anyone.

And when she was asked why the people voted her out on March 8th, she has the audacity to state that it was focusing on women's issues instead of party issues? Is she smokin hasish?

My prayer is for true leaders to emerge. After all is said and done a nation will be judged by how it treats its women, children and the elderly. Lets vote out the impotent geese!

SADEST IN MY LIFE.REALLY NEXT GENERATION UMNO CANT BE FIX.ALL ABOUT MONEY,MONEY,MONEY.HOW COME CORRUPT MAN STILL ELECTED.THE UMNO IS DIGGING THEIR OWN GRAVE.WHY ON EARTH THE MOST CAPABLE LEADER LIKE MUKHRIZ BEEN DUMP.MELAYU,MELAYU.NASIB KITA AKAN JADI LEBIH BUROK.PERCAYALAH.MARUAH BANGSA AKAN TERGADAI.HEARD A WHISPER KJ SPEND SOMETHING LIKE 30MILLION TO MAKE SURE TO STAY IN POLITICAL MAINSTREAM.SMALL MONEY COMPARE WHAT CAN GET BUY ARRANGING MAYBANK TAKEOVER IN INDON BANK FROM TEMASEK WHICH IS 3 TIMES HIGHER THAN THE ORIGINAL PRICE.WHAT A PITY TO MALAY.OTHER THING JUST LEARN THAN IN LATIN MALAY MEAN COLLAPSE.

My sympathies to Dr Mahathir and his close freiend Rockybru. Mahathir has lost a lot of influence while Rocky has equally lost a big slice of influence following his decision to switch to the other side. Khairy is going to be the future deputy PM and eventually PM. By the way, beers all round tonight at Kali's place.

KJ really don't deserved it at all. He should not be allowed to contest on the 1st place.It still shows that UMNO is full of corruptions and money laundering.Wonder what will happen to UMNO in the next election.

KJ the corrupted won? Shows UMNO members are too dumb to be accorded our votes in the next general election. Hopefully DS Najib will have the decency and courage NOT to appoint this guys as Minister though..And I can see the winners for tomorrow's election..Md Taib as DP, Zahid Hamidi, Khaled Nordin and Shafie Apdal as VPs. PR should be smiling to form the next govt after GE13.

Found guilty of money politics and STILL can win!!!! CHEH and CHIS!!!! Useless, useless, useless!! UMNO has signed its death warrant for the next general election. To think I stayed up late to see that grinning, smug mug win.....

Roll on Mat Taib and let's get this farce over. What lah, UMNO, to think I expected better. More fool me.

I was about to switch back to UMNO but that son-in-law no more! Why are those ciku Malays so stupid one..? Any of his supporters can answer me what he has done for Malaysia? Okay take FAM as your point of argument... I'll go for Azmin Ali again the next election ..just to prove my point!!hKJ

Watching the live telecast when their names are called out, I thought it was some talent music programme! What's the prize I wonder for winning? Contracts for life? Or an opportunity to serve the people? I really wonder..

i'm wondering.. has anybody heard anyone on this Earth say ONE good thing about KJ?? I support BN and still can't find one soul on this earth that says a good thing. Mostly bad comments and some are neutral. Not one good thing. Can't be a coincidence right?

As I was watching the announcement of UMNO Chief of Youth, I felt this is one of the most corrupted youth club in the world.

My grandma use to tell me,you can judge a person character by their looks (air muka) and I can surely bet that except for the likes of Mukhriz Mahathir and a handful, everyone there looks so hungry for money.

Sad, so sad that KJ won. A man with no substance and so into himself. Even his opening remarks was about him. He has no vision and this is reflected in his empty speech - just like his father-in-law. Strings of words/noise. His success is his alone and in no way he can garner any good to UMNO.

Allah did not answer Najib's prayer's because his saf will be filled with incompetent elected candidate.

Sharizat, has done nothing for the women and children in the country. She had her chance before. Bearing in mind, visiting children and bearing gifts or one off visit to homes are not contributions. As usual, Sharizat is all about be nice and proper, matching hanbags, shoes and hair colour.

Pemuda UMNO, Wanita UMNO and Puteri is no longer relevant to UMNO.

Rocky, we need a change - another party that will be filled with people that would serve the people. The party must be brave enough to call a spade and spade and not be swayed by money. You are a man of principle, you give your views fair and just, supported PR when you believed in them and commented on them when you saw they were no different.

Goodnite, I hope I won't have nightmares. Just dream for a better country because I will never have that for a long long time.

I'm somewhat not surprised at this piece of bad news. Why should you people be?

BN is corrupted right to the bone... and looks like there's no cure. Samy Vellu can retain the leadership unopposed no thanks to dirty tactics, Khairy can win... and even that Toyol can defeat the far cleaner Mukhriz.

u must be a frustrated man.after all u have been promoting mukhriz all this while...all i'm going to say is KJ is the trojan house brought into UMNO to be destroy from the inside....congrats!.. he has succeeded and by the GE-13, UMNO will be the opposition...

Nice to here Iron Lady lost.I kindda like Khairy win...give some sort of farewell happy news to Dollah.But who win or who loose...who cares.UMNO with the Najib....66 points in his speech and is the 6th PM..confirms....the devil reincarnated son.......exposing himself with the 666 sign is here again.Will he rule 22 years or 22 months?

I'm quite happy with the results actually. Not like we have a choice but I've always liked Shahrizat while KJ has the qualifications and ability. He might have overdone it, being too ambitious and arrogant in the past but I'm still willing to give him the benefit of doubt and give him a chance to correct his image.

Has anyone every though about the consequences to national security if Najib becomes PM? What if a foreign country has concrete evidence of Najib's involvement in certain acts of crime which he is currently very much suspected of committing? Just a simple photograph and Najib will easily be compromised. Another country can easily use this to blackmail Najib and take advantage of Malaysia.

Padan muka Mahathir kerana cuba mengungkit perasaan perkauman untuk memancing undi demi anaknya.Like i said, the old man is out. Not in sync with the times. The Melayu baru are smarter and cleverer now. Their feelings are not easily manipulated by the ultras of the 60s and now in their 80s. If the old man is still calling the shots, malu la kita…UMNO!Plz Stop using the Chinese as the Bogeyman..enough is enough!Demi Bangsa, Negara dan Agama!

I was really going to vote for UMNO/BN in the next coming GE. Now look at this money circus going around with the guilty man winning the post.....best of luck my fellow malay brothers and sisters. Malay really is not united....only money can make you all dance and sing like the orang utan. Damm....really thought you guys can make a change ....sigh....so sad. Pity you guys who stay in the kampung....money rules...KJ RULES!!

As an independent observer I think Sharizat's victory was expected. Rafidah should not have contested in the first place. The grassroots wanted her to leave early like Pak Lah but she didnt want to listen.

However, Sharizat has a tough task ahead. Interesting to see if najib would give her a cabinet post. I feel she should not. She shd just concentrate on Wanita.

Khairy's win was as I expected but not many did. It is a good result for Umno contrary to majority's believe. It provides a good balance. Interesting to see how Najib would work with his Ketua Pemuda. Having Mukriz as ketua pemuda would practically make him a lame duck as he would be dictated by najib.

I thought his victory speech was good although it was much playing to the gallery. I liked the part when he advised delegates to respect the other component parties of BN.

Ha,ha,ha,ha the dark side just got darker(however smarter),so tommorow would be the whether UMNO kicks the bucket or not(if muhammad muhammad taib wins and more jokers winning the vice-presidents post),ha,ha,ha,ha just joking,UMNO will not be dead as they have a special position protecting Malay insecurity about the unknown-other races threat and so on.So to those of you that think that UMNO will be dead think again,Malaysia will be dead first,then UMNO and Malays.And is very tough to change the Malays,just ask DR M,RPK and zaid Ibrahim and even Dato Onn,if we dont change then be changed,what if we still don't change,we will be wipe out to a point of no return(just look at Rwanda-now there are two seperate nations and both nation are still absolete and poor,there are other example of course),so as a malay and Malaysian,please damn it change,not change the political party but change our mindset and vote with that change,then the political party will follow suit as they need our vote.Hidup Malaysia,bukan PKR or UMNO or whatever.

Whoever who thinks KJ is the only one the three dishing the cash must be sadly mistaken. Ask the UMNO delegates and the question of size of remuneration separates the candidates.

Delegates have secret ballot votes which enable them to take money from anyone and still vote according to their conscience.

The fact that Mukriz won the most nominations but lost indicates that he had support at nominations because the anti KJ sentiment was strong and everyone voted with the flow as opposed to their own views. What matters at the end of the day is how people vote at the secret ballot. If KJ is that bad, I doubt he would have won.

UMNO should eliminate the quota system and then we will who wins hands down.

With KJ winning, you can rest assure that UMNO is history. Pemuda deligates did not listen to the peoples masses that we hope for a change. Change of not accepting money politics. But today, Pemuda UMNO shows to the world that money is everything. Malay agenda has taken a backseat. On Wanita UMNO, you have selected leadership that is ony good on PR, which is to be good to members only. Not for the rakyat.Viva UMNO. You are a dead organization. You dont want to represent the malays except to represent yourself and your money. Today, you shows without recourse, how corrupt you can be. With Shahrizat and KJ, we see the legacy of Abdullah still alive and well in UMNO. Once again UMNO, I salute you all.

I would like to know the real status of Shahrizat. Can anyone clarify her real Malay status to be in UMNO? So many of these UMNO members claim to support malay rights but they are not even really malay like Toyo from Indonesian parents.

So, what is sharizat real Malay status? is her parents originally Malay? Or just tukar IC jadi Melayu which basically makes her a cheater too.

They say Youth are the future leaders. With the victory of a proven corrupted youth candidate, it looks like money politics in umno is deeply entrenched and will stay entrenched for many many yrs to come. It goes to show that all the talks about cleaning money politics are just puffs.

To show my disappointment, I will vote for any party/independent anything except umno/BN in future GEs.

Much as I can't stand this arrogant and opportunistic young punk, one thing you can say for KJ, he won despite TDM's regular condemnation and Rocky's frequent snide potshots.

Mukhriz, well, he seems a likeable person and all, but he just hasn't even got the ability to capture public imagination on his own - one of the critical attributes of a leader. No amount of mudslinging his opponent can make this fresh faced boy shine. The only way he's gonna really shine is to show substance, and fight, really fight his own battles. And you gotta admit, KJ did the baptism by fire and all, and like they say, "came back from the dead". Now that ability, like KJ or not, deserves some respect.

Khairy's victory by garnering less than 40% of the UMNO Youth delegates votes do not AT ALL reflect the wishes of UMNO grass roots who in all certainty wanted Mukriz to lead.

Many of the UMNO Youth delegates who voted for Khairy did not fulfill the trust given to them from their Division who wanted Mukriz. As part of UMNO's reform, the election process must change to reflect the majority of grass root's wishes.

Najib must be seen to walk the talk from the very beginning of his UMNO Presidentship and Prime Ministership. Therefore as a person found Guilty of money politics, Khairy should NOT be given any post in the new Najib Cabinet if the new administration is serious in eradicating money politics.

Now, sit back and ask yourself about how your wife manged BAKIS and whether that was the way to capitalise on the trust mandated to you and your party during the time you were in power.

Not too late now - be honest and ask if you and your family were above GOD and the law to use public funds in the way it was reported in the media.

Try and see how you can make amends for these situations and why you had such behaviour when in power, as well as the use of public funds for very 'narrow' needs that did not benefit the rakyat.

Why did you not bother about the needs of the non-Malays but left it to MIC and MCA, Gerakan?

How can you call yourself then (at that time) that you were the leader of all citizens in Selangor when your wife and her group blatantly used public funds in the way it has been exposed in the media.

You still looking for reasons why BN lost in Selangor?

The latest revelations about BALKIS is just the tip of the iceberg. More will surely come. It will overshadow the cows, cars, and the semi-nude photos.

Come on now, try and tell us again why we should see you as a 'service above self' person and why you deserve a second chance?

Why do we have to accept that Selangor is the most developed state of Malaysia?

What development? The way BALKIS functioned - for the upliftment of living standards of the rakyat in Selangor?

UMNO was never intended to be a party for people like you and the corrupted ones. But why do you guys become so corrupt when you come to power?

Its not in the party constitution that you have to transform like this. Yet you sold out the bumis in Selangor, especially the simple folks who mean no harm to others and who could live peacefully with other ethnic groups for many years.

If you think no action will be taken against you and BALKIS members, please remember that you cannot escape when you face GOD finally.

Know that from day one that you are on losing side. Tun M is irrelevant to Malaysia. He is being treated the same way he treated Tunku Abdul Rahman and Tun Hussein Onn. History repeat itself. His son paying the price for the method introduced by Tun in UMNO. Tun M is being made to pay and see whatever damages he has done to UMNO and also Malaysia. Long life Tun M.

Agak kecewa dengan keputusan semalam...apa yang diharapkan mungkin hanya keinginan org UMNO untuk memilih orang tertentu yang telah banyak "memberi" kepada mereka. Infact, the result do not really imagine of Malaysian's choice. My hope, this result should be reflected in Malaysian Cabinet soon. Hoping, our new prime minister would think wisely for the best of rakyat. Congratulations kpd calon Puteri & Shahrizat. Not forgettable, Rafidah. At least, she did the best to country as well.ESSI

I just feel so sorry for all those who lost. Mukhriz crying. Toyo Solemn. Rafidah defeated. Such emotion displayed. Such attachment. Such genuine human qualities displayed not just by the defeated, but also the supporters, that chokes me.

I just cannot imagine the even greater emotions these same people would have displayed hearing of rape or paedophile cases or the story of Altantuya and of all the other cases of landowners finding themselves not the owners anymore because of shenanigans and all these somehow allegedly connected to their UMNO leaders!

I had the opportunity of viewing a clip of Khairy Jamaluddin campaigning in Kelantan for UMNO/BN in the last general election (on YouTube) where he was publicly mocking Tok Guru Nik Aziz, a person I greatly revere.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsjCXHGi3Zg

KJ strikes me as someone who is arrogant, shallow and one who will do great disservice to Islam and Malaysians in general.

We all deserve better but tragically rhetoric seems to prevail over substance nowadays and KJ’s appointment as UMNO Youth Leader appears to affirm that position.

Yes, I will change my party to PAS only if PAS is OUT of Pakatan Rakyat. If not, better go for BEBAS. Why? 'cos PAS is lembik and has low moral values, becoming more and more corrupted, not really a Muslim party as they condone free sex and insult the Sultan, giving many freehold land to the other side in Perak, easily MANIPULATED by DAP, giving permission to use "Allah" etc .....If PAS wants me to go to them, then they have to change and go back to their roots and fundamentals on why they were founded, to stop insulting and degrading fellow Muslims in UMNO (not that I love UMNO)....if not, I am not interested ....

Good news for your guys, no need to do campaigning for the 3 bi-election as you guys ARE going to win big time .....relax lah Anwar, Kit Siang ....now, is the time to have a list of your forthcoming cabinet for the PRU 13 as you guys ARE going to win big time too !!!

No need to ask the kataks to lompat as the RAKYAT will lompat BIG TIME .....Thanks to KJ! Padan muka lu UMNO! Tak pakai otak ...

I have been a regular follower of your blog. Now I've to think again. So far as I know no supporter of anti PPSMI has made fun of any language the way you have done with Malay. Shame on you. Thanks to people like you, the next generation wouldn't be able to count one to ten in Malay! Did the Russian leran Science and Mathematics in English before they sent a human to the moon?
